		The ford at Ludford was at the bottom of Old Street and continued straight across the river where the modern road turned sharp right to reach Ludford bridge.
		It may also have rock ledges with some of the river running beneath them - I remember my mother told me that this occurred somewhere by Ludlow and was very dangerous to anyone careless enough to slip into the river at a place where they could be sucked under the ledge.
		The bridge is in the centre of the picture and the colours are rather dull since it was raining heavily at the time.

		This bridge is only one vehicle wide and no pavements so when we crossed we had to avoid being smeared along the parapet by large vans.
		At the other end of the path we arrived at Dinham Bridge, the other of the two Ludlow bridges, which is just as narrow as Ludford Bridge but carries far less traffic.
		Across the bridge and up the narrow lane we arrived at Castle Square which is where we went into the Church Inn for lunch.

		At Ludford corner, the beds are well exposed, but visually far less striking than the cliff we saw as we climbed up from the Teme.
		The other great thing about heading to Ludford Corner is that there are a few nice pubs in the immediate vicinity and it's just a stone's throw away from Ludlow town centre.
		If you head over the beautiful Ludford bridge and up Broad Street, you'll be in the town centre before you know it (approximately 15 minutes walk from Whitcliffe Common).

		When you reach Dinham Bridge you will see the first in a series of waymarked posts indicating the Mortimer Trail.
		It's a very undemanding walk, which takes you west of Ludlow to the fringes of Mortimer Forest and then into Oakly Park, an estate of farmland, parkland and woodland belonging to the Earl of Plymouth, whose house, also known as Oakly Park, is sited beside the River Teme close to Bromfield.
		After crossing Ludford Bridge near the start of the walk, look for a plaque on a cliff at Ludford Corner which records the work of the great geologist Sir Roderick Murchison, who established the Silurian system in the 1830s after studying Shropshire's amazing variety of rocks.
